2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumAll these investigations by the GOP for nothing? It's time we investigate Bush and company.
Benghazi? The VA? Releasing POW's? Excuse me, but how much is this going to cost us taxpayers? And I'm sure it will be all for nothing. On the other hand, we have Bush and his cronies admitting war crimes (Darth Cheney specifically) and not one investigation. I am under the impression that Obama didn't want to waste tax payer money to do this when he took office. Well, times have changed. We now have Cheney admitting that he is a war criminal, and would do it again, if given a chance. Isn't that enough to investigate and put these assholes in jail. I would imagine Bush can probably improve his painting skills quite well painting 2 inch bars and concretes blocks by the time he gets out. The GOP seems to think that money is like playing monopoly. All play money!!!! I say it's time Obama starts playing hardball, and start up an investigation on IRAQ, the admitted war crimes, and billions that disappeared in IRAQ. The IRAQ war generated billions to Halliburton, thousands of unnecessary deaths, water boarding(which is illegal) and no investigation? OMG. Give me a break. It's time we put the real crooks behind bars.

(22,651 posts)sure its past time we get the war profiteers behind bars but that will never happen. They made themselves (through American law) immune from prosecution. People tortured in other countries can't even sue them for their horrific damages.
Cheney-Halliburton is a dual citizen of Dubai for a reason. Only 'father-time' will punish them.

Thank God most countries know full well the difference between American Bushcheneny et all and American President Obama.
God forbid another torture-Republican takes the Captains chair and makes America more of a target of massive hate again.
